Watchog holds its arms out and five golden orbs of light appear and circle around its body. When it raises its arms in the air, the five orbs fire at the opponent and stop above it.

Solosis's body glows gold faintly and six golden orbs of energy appear around its body and spin around it clockwise. Solosis's body then flashes white and it fires the six orbs of energy at the opponent. When the orbs reach the opponent, they surround it and latch onto its body, completely enveloping it. The orbs then glow gold brightly and explode, confusing the opponent.

Drapion forms multiple golden balls of aura around itself and they grow into larger golden balls with purple and white colored aura inside of them and then they fly towards the opponent, circle around the opponent and converge into a singular ball, that is a brighter version of the balls and it disappears, confusing the opponent or putting them to sleep.
